  • @brianbergmusic5288

    The most fascinating aspect of the synthesizer is how a patch can change or morph from one sound to the next. Each type of synthesis (analog/subtractive, wavetable, fm, additive) has a unique quality of sound transformation. Therefore, it is no contest at all, and a good electronic musician has each of these tools in their repertoire. There's such a big difference between the en*trance*ing filter sweep in a Roland Jupiter 8 (subtractive) versus the alien gurgling growl of a dubstep bass (FM).
    FM synthesis seems to be the most elusive to master of the bunch. It's so easy to go off the rails from some bell-like tone to a dentist drill on shrooms. The other forms of synthesis feel like bowling with those kiddie bumper-guards on in comparison. While the Sega Genesis made SIMPLE fm synthesis mainstream, that is merely the tip of the iceberg.

    That really cleared up some misunderstandings for me. People kept saying that Ableton's Operator was an FM Synthesizer. And I could see that, but I thought wasn't it also an Subtractive and Additive Synthesizer? I used to think the forms of synthesis were mutually exclusive but I guess Operator combines Subtractive, Additive, and FM, right?

      @@official-obama my bad, adding up all the frequencies in an additive synth would probably create a harmonically rich saw-like sound as it adds together all the available harmonic tones in the synth engine, I didn't realize you were talking about the specific synthesizer and assumed you were talking about sine waves playing in each frequency bin between 20-20kHz (equal amplitude sine waves in each freq)

    I’m trying to win this challenge based on a noise - guessing what the object is based on the sound- I believe it has to do with fm modulation/ radio frequency based on the hints. The sound played is equivalent to a glass bottle rolling on cement or bolts in a glass jar being shaken, or lots of poker chip being played with. All of those have lost. Any idea what this sound is? I’m so confident it’s somehow related to a smart definition but can not explain it.

  • @user-fo3ug3cr4m
    @user-fo3ug3cr4m 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    So when a synthesizer has a cutoff that can close and open, it is additive and subtraktive synthesis, right?
    And is a LFO equal to FM synthesis?

    • @nickthechen
      @nickthechen 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      When you change the cut off of the filter this is subtractive synthesis. Additive Synthesis (the sound source). doesn't involve filter cut off's, (It's just a bunch of sine waves being summed up). Additive SYNTHESIZERS (the whole instrument itself) generally will have a filter cut off. LFO modulating the pitch of an oscillator is FM, however when its so slow /low it sounds like a pitch wobble. the faster the lfo goes you start to get into FM timbres. hope that helps!

    • @user-fo3ug3cr4m
      @user-fo3ug3cr4m 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      nickthechen Yes. But there are synthesizers e.g. Harmless in FL Studio that are described as additive and subtractive, that’s what I am confused with.

    • @08js45
      @08js45 ปีที่แล้ว

      LFO is for low frequency oscilator, it actually is FM synthesis but with low oscilation modulation, so it doesnt let you make timbres with it, like in actual fm synthesis
      also a LFO can modulate a whole world of other things, not only the frequency (F.requency M.odulation)
